The drive north

Tane Mahuta

November 3rd, Steve picked up our Toyota Highlander and got into the mindset of driving on the left hand side, with Dave as the co-pilot.  We headed north towards The Bay of Islands, stopping at a historic hotel that claims to be the only hotel that has been shipwrecked, looked at the remains of a 45,000 year old kauri tree, ate meat pies, and took a short walk to see the 2,000 year old living Tane Mahuta kauri tree.
